BCLCILA is the provincial (British Columbia) council of the International Literacy Association (an organization of nearly 100,000 members dedicated to the improvement of reading instruction and the promotion of lifetime reading habits). It is affiliated with the Canadian Network of International Literacy Association Councils (CNILAC). Long before we had a provincial council, we were fondly know as LOMCIRA, the Lower Mainland (of Vancouver, B.C.) Council of the International Reading Association.
